SportsLine | Tyler Reddick |
SportsLine is eyeing Tyler Reddick as a potential surprise in the upcoming 2021 Coca-Cola 600 even though the driver isn’t considered as among the favorites. Reddick is coming off back-to-back top 10s, as he finished eighth in the Drydene 400 at Dover International Speedway and ninth in the EchoPark Texas Grand Prix at Circuit of the Americas. Also, Reddick has finished inside the top 10 in four of his last five starts. He’s only raced twice at Charlotte Motor Speedway in his NASCAR Cup Series career, but he finished inside the top 15 in both races.

Adam B | Brad Keselowski |
Adam B of ATS.io did not exactly make a pick, but he sounds high on Keselowski, who won the GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway back in April. Keselowski also has two wins, five top 5s, and 10 top 10s in 21 career starts at Charlotte Motor Speedway. He has also cracked the top five in two of his last four starts there, including a win in the 2020 Coca-Cola 600.

Here’s what TopBet’s Ryan Simpson said about Kyle Busch in our preview of the 2021 Coca-Cola 600 race:
“After a disappointing showing in the Drydene 400 at Dover International Speedway, Busch had a much more impressive performance, as he finished 109th in the EchoPark Texas Grand Prix. He now has three top 10s in his last three starts, a stretch that includes his win in the Buschy McBusch Race 400 at Kansas Speedway on May 2. Busch only has one in 32 starts at Charlotte Motor Speedway, but he’s got a 14.69 career average finish there. He also cracked the top 4 in three of his last four appearances on that track.”
